Yes, guitarist Doyle will be playing in the Glenn Danzig-fronted original Misfits homecoming on Saturday, May 19 at the Prudential Center in Newark.

Doyle’s name was not originally included on bills announcing the show and he himself seemed to indicate that he would not be playing on his Instagram account with a “Nope” post. However, Doyle posted on his Facebook page on the afternoon of Monday, Jan 29 that he’s playing and a spokesperson for Live Nation, the promoter of the show, confirmed it.

“IT HAS BEEN CONFIRMED !!!! Glenn, Jerry and Doyle to play ... !!!” said Doyle.

The Misfits were formed in 1977 in Lodi with a nucleus of singer Danzig, born Glenn Anzalone, and bassist Jerry Only, born Gerald Caiafa. Doyle (Paul Caiafa, Gerald Caiafa’s younger brother) joined in 1980. The original Misfits broke up in 1983 but since then their popularity has grown exponentially.
